“Lindsay is fantastic! My dog and cat love her and she gives them all the love. She spent a week in my home caring for them and it was great knowing I did not have to worry about a thing. She provided frequent updates, photos, and asked questions about things I forgot to tell her. She is super sweet and kind!!!! She is definitely my number one pet/house sitter now. 😊”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a little girl. I know how to make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. I’m very patient and kind with animals, and will treat them like they’re my own! They would be in great hands while under my care! I work a full time 8am-5pm job, Monday through Friday.

“Hannah was our first house sitter and as over protective pet parents we could be happier with the care she provided. She was easy to communicate with, respectful of our home and kept our animals on their regular schedule. Thank you Hannah!”
About: I have personally grew up with dogs and find myself very passionate about care and respect for animals! My years of internships experience at a rescue center has allowed me to learn rehab skills, spread owner-responsibility awareness and tips, and have hands-on field work with all different kinds of animals, especially dogs, and cater to all their specialized needs! I additionally have fostered a couple of dogs from my local shelter! We call them staycations. This is where, as fosters, we take a dog from out of the shelter for maybe a week or so to give them some fresh air and some at-home loving! All dogs I have fostered have been happily adopted by their forever-owners! I currently work a part time job so I evidently have plenty of time on my hands to take care of your dogs! With that being said, I don’t have a set schedule that I usually work but I only work 2-3 days a week. During the week, afternoons are best for me, and weekends I have full availability if I’m not working! Please inquire to get more details about my schedule! :) I have interned at a animal care and control center so I find myself pretty well and familiar with all kinds of personalities dogs may have! I am very attentive and well follow any set instructions given for the best care of your pup!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs almost my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am! For the past 5 years, I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need extra attention and playtime to sweet senior dogs who need a little more patience and care, I love them all! I also have a big dog back home named Hank, so large breeds definitely don’t intimidate me! Whether your pet is big or small, young or old, I’m happy to give them all the love and attention they deserve. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your furry family members just like they’re my own! I am a full time student but my class schedule is flexible and gives me plenty of time for visits and time to take care of your pups multiple times throughout the day. One of my biggest priorities when caring for your pets is making sure they feel as comfortable, relaxed, and loved as possible! I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always do my best to match the energy and environment they’re used to at home. Whether that means lots of playtime, long walks, extra cuddles, or simply having someone there to keep them company, I’m happy to do whatever makes them feel most at ease! I understand that being away from their owners can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I want to be a familiar, comforting presence they can count on. My goal is to keep their routines as normal as possible and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember!

I have a strong understanding of proper animal care, common household foods and substances that can be toxic to pets, and how to recognize and respond to emergency situations. I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and want every owner to feel confident knowing their babies are in good hands! I have a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs!

Whether you need drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or some extra love and attention for your pet, I’ll do my best to make it work! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to keep every animal safe, comfortable, and happy in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding, providing fresh water, exercise, playtime, cleaning up after them, and following any special care instructions their owners provide. Having grown up around and caring for many different animals, I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and comfort levels. I give them plenty of love and attention while respecting their individual boundaries. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, keep their spaces clean and safe, and provide updates and pictures so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.

“Autumn was amazing! Autumn watched our small dog & cat for a week while on vacation and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our animals. Not only did she respect our home and leave it clean and tidy, but you could tell by how happy and healthy our animals were when we came home that they were well taken care of. Communication was always seamless and easy & she was super flexible. She made us feel comfortable our entire time away and I would absolutely recommend her to watch your animals and we will absolutely use her again in the future!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was 12 years old! I’ve had experience with both mini poodles and toy poodles, and I currently have both a toy poodle and a mini poodle of my own. Having dogs throughout my life has taught me how important patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love are when caring for someone’s pet. I’m currently a college student, so my schedule varies depending on the day, but I have plenty of availability for pet sitting and dog walking. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I’m usually finished with classes around 1 PM. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I’m usually finished around 5 PM. My weekends are completely open, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Since I live in a dorm, I’m unable to have pets stay inside with me, but I’d be more than happy to spend the day outside with your pet, take them on walks, play with them, visit a dog park, or give them lots of attention and exercise. I’m also available for house sitting when my schedule allows! I take your pet’s safety and comfort very seriously. Since I live in a college dorm, I’m unable to provide overnight boarding in my own home, but I’m happy to provide dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting at your home.

About: I’ve had a cat for as long as I can remember. I frequently watch my sister’s cats as needed while taking care of my own.

I will be an attentive pet sitter for your pet and make sure all of their needs are taken care of and that they are enjoying themselves!
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Care from Allison & Alex! Allison and Alex took wonderful care of our boys over the Labor Day weekend, and we couldn’t have been happier with their service! Their communication was spot-on from beginning to end, and the photos of belly rubs, playtime, and happy boys gave us such peace of mind while we were away. 🐾❤️ They did an amazing job managing our senior boy’s medications and kept us informed about any concerns or adjustments that needed to be made. We truly appreciated their attentiveness and the way they treated our boys as if they were their own. They also took great care of our home and made sure the yard was cleaned up after the boys. It was clear that they went above and beyond in every aspect of their stay. We highly recommend Allison and Alex to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, responsible, and communicative pet sitters. We would absolutely book them again! 🐶🐾❤️”

We had a dog sitter booked for our pup over the weekend. Weekend arrives and dog sitter unresponsive! We scramble for help same day and out flies Kiley like a superhero in an over-produced Marvel film. Saved the day clutch, on top of being professional and friendly. Thanks again, Kiley!
Kimberly and Jodi did a great job house sitting our dog for the first time. He does require some special attention due to his age. He looked great and so did our house. They were easy to say in touch with and sent just the right amount of pictures.! We will call on them again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Worthingtons Crossroads is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $47 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Worthingtons Crossroads walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Worthingtons Crossroads maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Worthingtons Crossroads choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
